DRAMATIC DRIFT.

The MESTAYER-VAUGHN combination did q
fairly good business during the past week
with their new play, ''Tobogganing." While
the play is not "a bowling success" still
there are many meritorious points in it, but
in many respects it could be vastly improved
by making changes in the cast Like all of
MEsTAYERs productions, there is so much
in the performance depending on the skill of
the performers that it will not be until the
management secures better company to pre-
sent it that money will be made out of it,
~
skipped by the Light of the Noon will
be the attraction at the Grand the present
week. The engagement commences Tuesday
night, as Manager SCOTT has s1gnified his in
tention to refresh the patriotism of the opera
house force by allowing the whole outfitto
attend the presidents reception, and couse-
quently the Grand will not be open Monday
night.
skipped by the Light Of the Moon Is
farcical comedy somewhat after the ''Parlor
Match style. and is very funny. 1t possesses
we'll defined plot interspersed with clean
and wholesome humor and is brim full of vi
tality and action. The play has never been
seen in st. Paul, although it has been on The
stage for five or six years and has had sue
cessful run in the Eastern cities. FOWLER
and WARRINGTON, well-known theatrical
managers, are the pr oprietors, and the cast
includes the equally well-known comedy
artists, WILLIAM BLAIsDELL, FRANK KEN
DRIcK, H. c. BROWNING, ADELE BRAY, EFFIE
ALTON, ADA MELRosE and ROSE ALTON,

After such long run Of light plays 1t will
be an agreeable change to st. Paul theater-
goers to have the genuine dramatic treat
promised next week by the appearance Of
MARGARET MATHER in some of her best roles.
Miss MATHER will play all next week at the
Grand and her repertoire will include
"Romeo and Juliet" 'Tho Honeymoon, -

PLEA FOR THE CHILDREN.

The children must not be overlooked.
The pupils of the public schools and of
all the private schools will have holt
day Tuesday. Now, let it be arranged
to have them congregate for review
by the president and Mrs. CLEVELAND,
and let it be at some point where it can
be made creditable affair. The GLOBE
has already suggested Summit Park as
an appropriate place. If not there let
it be at some point on Summit avenue,
near the Lookout, or whatever place
may be deemed best. But do not crowd
the little ones away down to the foot of
Third street, as has been suggested,
where there will be no room for re-
view, and where the little ones will be
in danger of being crushed to death by
the crowd.

MEN WHO TALK.
Jndee @. r. Elandrau.

We shall go right ahead with the sale OF the
effects of the Minnesota Thresher company,
and try that appeal case of the opposition
afterwards. II the courts decide IN favor of
the appellants, why, there is no sale, and that
is all there is to it. But we know very well
that the sole object of the appeal Is a game of
bluff, and we are prepared to meet any such
demonstration. There is no question in my
mind that the full bench of the state will con-
cur in the order made by one of its members
fixing the 9th inst. for the sale of this prop
erty, hence we do not intend to postpone our
proceedings at the instance of Mr.. PORTER or
his followers. All the details were carefully
gone over at the recent hearing in Saltwater,
and if we were to talk forever we could not
make any palmer the necessity for the sale
of this property under the most advantageous
conditions, and this can be accomplished on
the date named in the judges decision.

SOME prejudiced partisan thinks he
discerns in the flying trip of the president
through Illinois desire to snub Commission
er of Pensions BLACK in his aspirations for
vice presidential honors with a view to
adding the weight of the administrations in
fuence to a boom for Postmaster General
Villas. Such talk is the veriest rubbish, for
in the first place, President CLEVELAND is not
going to disintegrate his cabinet. as he will
need his trained ieutenants during his Sec
ond administration. and the friends OF Gen.
BLACK need not take alarm at the action of
the president in spending several DAYS with
one of the members of his official family To
be sure there is growing sentiment favora-
BILE to Democratic ideas that may in the next
national election turn Wisconsin and Mime
sofa bodily into the CLEVELAND column,
whereas Illinois is welded to its idols and
nothing that the president or his advisers
can do will prevent its giving its electoral
vote to the Republican nominee.

Representative Edmund Rice.

The main object that had in view n,op-
posing the proposition to place President and
Mrs. CLEVELAND in separate carriages was,
that the public might have an opportunity of
seeing our distinguished guests together. Be-
sides, this would prevent any confusion as
to the identity of Mrs. CLEVELAND with other
ladies that might be in the procession, and
strangers visiting st. Paul on the occasion of
the reception could return home certain that
they had seen the mistress of the White
house. On the other hand, if an idea pro-
posed had been carried out Mrs. CLEVELAND
would have been in carriage behind that of
her husband, and there might have been a
further unavoidable separation by large
concourse of people. All this, however, has
happily been obviated, and our people will
be enabled to greet the president and his
wife simultaneously

Telling sisters love for me.

The bloom of youth in days of yore,

And breathes of blessings from above
And that great boon-a Woman's love.

will naturally feel proud to have such
an honorable Office come to the state, all
feel that it could not have been placed
in better hands than those of Judge
Rea, who has hosts of friends wherever

one that would have suited MinnesOtians

CHICAGO keeps up its reputation for orig
1nality,if we may judge by the actions of the
city council last Monday in discussing the re-
ception to the president and Mrs. CLEVELAND.
One of the assemblymen, PAUL c. DENNIS,
was opposed to reception at which dress
suits alone would be proper, saying, 'We
don't want it high toned, for if it is, we won't
reach the Democracy. 1 amt got no COM
plant to make, but want it so any Demo
crat can so and see the president whether he
wears a silk-tailed coat or a red flannel
shirt" This assemblyman did not know,
possibly, that the president makes no distinc
tons, but welcomes all alike who pay their
respects to him. But Chicago must do some
thing out of the usual run of things, and that
assemblyman ought to have been muzzled
before the meeting.
